And a mystery bag of parts that I'm going to throw out.....

[Doug Smock]

That's nice John. Now get to work!! lol

[Doby]

Its going to be a casual winter build....waters in cube format up here now.

[ray schrauwen]

Second from the left, what is that? You buy a 12" long esc or something? lol...

All the hardware...

[ray schrauwen]

if you want a Large scale (1/5th) servo mount I've got one for you. There are strong enough Standard servos but, thought I'd offer.

[Doby]

Post a pic Ray.

As for the other thing...I'm not sure..its watercooled and about a foot long....some sort of cooling plate. As this was a gas hull, maybe its something to do with that????

[LiPo Power]

Thanks, please keep it aside untill I can make it to your
place. Maybe this weekend if you are ok with it...
Let me know...

It's the same extrusion as the etti cooling plates for esc's.

This MOUNT

Let me know the width of that cooling plate pls.

I Like It! What motor is it gettin'?

[Doby]

I'm not to sure right now....its way lighter than I thought so I'm re-thinking things. Was going to be a 10S setup, but thinking about 8S now.

[Doby]

Installed some hardware last night...

730 Kv or 1280Kv.

10S or 6S.....

Looks good Doby, that thing should rip on 10s. That mount is nice it looks real simular to the one I used on my 44" Hyper Hydro except mine doesn't say Fightercat it says something else I don't remember

[Doby]

TFL was nice enough to send me the mount...I suppose its fairly obvious that they make some of Fightercats products.

[ron1950]

so its ice skating in the mornings and boat building by the fireplace at night huh?

[Doby]

Closest thing I could find to the middle finger.

[lenny]

Hear you go, ┌∩┐(►_◄)┌∩┐

I was going to say you asked for it, lol...

Just the response I was expecting,

[rickwess]

...actually found one at a local hobby shop.

Great Hobbies? I was in there last week and noticed that motor and they said someone just bought one a week or so ago.

[Doby]

Picked it up last Wednesday.

[Doby]

Got the hardware all mounted...

[flraptor07]

Hey, that thing in the middle.... Is that the tail pipe?

[LiPo Power]

what do you mean?

Hey, that thing in the middle.... Is that the tail pipe?

[Doby]

Hey, that thing in the middle.... Is that the tail pipe?

Yup...big honk'in one !!!

[T.S.Davis]

I'm looking forward to you put'n a hurt on Fireball with this John. Boat looks fast sitting there.

Should be no darting issues with that bottom.

That Proteus motor might do quite well on 8s in the delta config.

[BILL OXIDEAN]

Got the hardware all mounted...

I like how you're using mostly the hardware they provided.
Shows folks how its gonna' handle when they buy one. Nice build! TFL seems to be taking great care of you guys..
Whats up with that rigger in Monica's avitar? Are you guys getting them soon?

[Doby]

Yup...everything so far is from TFL, except I chose to go with an aftermarket stinger instead of the factory strut...easier to adjust I think...

TFL has been very accommodating....I think most folks on here who have dealt with them would say the same thing.

That rigger is an upcoming new release from TFL...should be out sometime in the near future.

[flraptor07]

I'm extremely happy with TFL, I've bought two boats direct through Monica and they are by far the best overseas company I've ever dealt with and Monica is a sweetheart!
